Read MoreThe award-winning WeatherFlex GT is a next-generation all-weather tire that delivers both reliable year-round performance and extended mileage. Certified with the 3PMSF (3-Peak Mountain Snowflake) mark—a mandatory certification for winter tires in Europe—the tire ensures consistent and stable driving on snow, ice, and wet roads, making it ideal for diverse and challenging winter conditions.
Read MoreThe pioneering “I” technology is based on online rheometry for continuously optimizing the process and determining the actual material viscosity in the shear rate range of relevance to injection molding. This technology uses a mathematical relationship between the volumetric flow rate of the injection molding machine, the geometric constraints of the cold runner, and the shear force at the needle to identify and quantify batch-to-batch fluctuations. This turns the cold runner into rheological measuring instrument.
In learning mode, the system automatically detects the volume of material required to fill a cavity, so facilitating setup and optimization, especially with family molds with a number of cavities of differing sizes. Ready for integrating artificial intelligence (AI), the system is set in future to be able to support self-controlled injection molding machines if SMARTshot I control is integrated into the machine at a later date.
Read MoreComerio Ercole SpA is marking a major milestone this year as it celebrates its 140th anniversary. Founded in 1885 by Ercole Comerio, the company has grown from a local entrepreneurial venture into a global leader in machinery for rubber and plastic processing, exporting 94% of its production worldwide.
To commemorate this historic achievement, Comerio Ercole has published a 272-page book chronicling its journey through time. The volume captures the company’s evolution through historical anecdotes, technological milestones, and personal stories, all underscoring a legacy built on tradition and a relentless drive for innovation.
Read MorePolish customs officials have intercepted a shipment of five metric tons of Boeing aircraft tires that were falsely declared as car and bus tires. The tires, originating from a company in Spain and destined for Azerbaijan, were scheduled to transit through Belarus and Russia—both under strict European Union sanctions.
